The second edition of Matrix Analysis and Applied Linear Algebra has been almost completely rewritten to create a textbook designed to provide flexibility for nearly any desired degree of rigor and depth of coverage. Throughout, there are carefully constructed exercises ranging from easy to moderately challenging to difficult, many of which ......
The Turing/von Neumann model of computing is dominant today but is by no means the only one. This textbook explores an important subset of alternatives, including those such as quantum and neuromorphic, which receive daily news attention. The models are organized into distinct groups. After a review of the Turing/von Neumann model to set the ......
Extremum Seeking through Delays and PDEs, the first book on the topic, expands the scope of applicability of the extremum seeking method, from static and finite-dimensional systems to infinite-dimensional systems. Readers will find: Numerous algorithms for model-free real-time optimization are developed and their convergence guaranteed. ......
Optimization is presented in most multivariable calculus courses as an application of the gradient, and while this treatment makes sense for a calculus course, there is much more to the theory of optimization. Optimization problems are generated constantly, and the theory of optimization has grown and developed in response to the challenges ......
Designed for a proof-based course on linear algebra, this rigorous and concise textbook intentionally introduces vector spaces, inner products, and vector and matrix norms before Gaussian elimination and eigenvalues so students can quickly discover the singular value decomposition (SVD)-arguably the most enlightening and useful of all matrix ......
Inverse scattering theory is a major theme in applied mathematics, with applications to such diverse areas as medical imaging, geophysical exploration, and nondestructive testing. The inverse scattering problem is both nonlinear and ill-posed, thus presenting challenges in the development of efficient inversion algorithms. A further complication ......
Composites have been studied for more than 150 years, and interest in their properties has been growing. This classic volume provides the foundations for understanding a broad range of composite properties, including electrical, magnetic, electromagnetic, elastic and viscoelastic, piezoelectric, thermal, fluid flow through porous materials, ......
Reduced order modeling is an important, growing field in computational science and engineering, and this is the first book to address the subject in relation to computational fluid dynamics. It focuses on complex parametrization of shapes for their optimization and includes recent developments in advanced topics such as turbulence, stability of ......
